Two years ago, the NVIDIA^® RTX^™ platform revolutionized professional visual computing forever. Based on the NVIDIA Turing™ GPU architecture and armed with real-time ray tracing, accelerated AI, and photorealistic VR, it enabled designers and engineers to do their life’s work at a level of quality and performance unlike ever before. But the pace of innovation and the drive to achieve new breakthroughs never ceases. And now, global circumstances have presented a new set of challenges for professionals to create, build, entertain and discover in a world that looks dramatically different than the recent past.

With the introduction of the NVIDIA RTX A6000 desktop GPU, based on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture, NVIDIA has placed a whole new level of performance and capabilities in the hands of demanding professionals. This ensures they are not only ready to tackle the urgent needs of today, but are superbly equipped to meet the rapidly evolving, intensive demands of tomorrow.

VIVE Pro Secure Opens VR to Sensitive Government and Commercial Proprietary IP Environments

The demand for VR across government organizations is increasing and will continue to grow as agencies adapt many of the best practices developed and deployed across the private sector for use in training, data visualization, and manufacturing, among other use cases. A major obstacle to any technology – including VR – for adoption by organizations that require ATO (Authority To Operate) is access to hardware that meets strict and specific security and privacy requirements. The new VIVE Pro Secure is the first VR HMD and system that delivers specific hardware modifications to provide optimal performance, features and capabilities in the most demanding and strict secure environments.

Qualified for the data center, the NVIDIA^® RTX^™ Server  offers powerful virtual workstations capable of running demanding professional applications and workflows when used with NVIDIA Quadro Virtual Data Center Workstation (Quadro vDWS) software. With NVIDIA RTX Server and Quadro vDWS in the data center all of the features, benefits, and power of Quadro RTX are available on-demand. Engineers, artists, architects and other professionals working remotely can access virtual workstations that support the latest in computer graphics, enabling them to run CAD, PLM rendering and simulation applications. With NVIDIA GPU virtualization, multiple users (virtual machines) are able to share GPU resources for lighter workloads and, for more demanding workloads, a user can access a full or even multiple GPUs. Using easy-to-use management tools, the enterprise IT department is able to improve scalability and optimize utilization of their GPU resources to meet the needs of more employees while also improving user productivity.

NVIDIA Omniverse™ is a powerful, multi-GPU, real-time simulation and collaboration platform for 3D production pipelines based on Pixar’s Universal Scene Description (USD) and NVIDIA’s open-source MDL (Materials Definition library).

Omniverse aims for universal interoperability across different applications and 3D ecosystem vendors. Think of it as a “PDF” for advanced 3D graphics. It provides efficient real-time scene updates and is based on open standards and protocols. The Omniverse Platform is designed to act as a hub, enabling new capabilities to be exposed as micro-services.
